Damages
'Conversations'
Brought to you by Shady Studios and Cadillac
Sonic was surprised to see his friend back. It seemed almost ages that they have seen each other. The echidna looked at his blue friend. The last time he had seen him, he was a streak-less hedgehog with heroism showing in a distance and pride in his smile and eyes. But no, he had seen difference. His heroic smile was gone and he was no longer containing the hero image he had hated for so long. He began to feel concern and began asking, "What happened to you?" Sonic small smirk twisted to a frown. "Many things." he sat down on a chair and so did Knuckles. He began explaining what had happened to him from when his friends left and began adding some events in his life that were running through his head, but he remained quiet about who it was.
While they spoke, Silver was there, hearing everything they were saying. "One question though Sonic?" Tear filled eyes looked at dry caring eyes, "What?" "What happened to Amy? I heard she was going over there t-" before he could finish, he was interrupted by the blue hedgehog, "She's dead Knuckles." The echidna blinked multiple times, making it look as if he did not receive the information properly. "What?" Sonic moved away a running tear continuing, "He killed her." The red animal was surprised to his response and he began questioning, "Who did all of this?" The blue hedgehog sighed and remained quiet. He leaned a bit closer, "Sonic, who did this?" he said in a more serious tone. There was still no response.
The blue hedgehog closed his eyes while the red head tried to think up of a way to seduce him into telling him the name, or more like, anything. Meanwhile, Silver was taking out his cell phone and dialing his boss' number. Shadow was staring at a fishbowl with nothing but a goldfish and its environment. He heard his phone ring and he put it on speaker, "What is it Silver?"
The white hedgehog looked around to see if there were no onlookers or just basically anyone around. He spoke over the phone, "Sir, its Sonic, someone came and he's spilling most of it out." "WHAT?! SILVER, WHY THE HELL AREN'T YOU TEARING HIM TO PIECES?!" Shadow yelled and banged his fist on the desk and it vibrated towards the bowl and the fish swam into its cavern home. "It's your old allie, Knuckles." The sound of the familiar name gave the mischievous hedgehog an idea, "You know what? Change of plans. Bring the echidna to me and I'll deal with this problem." Silver blinked. He wondered why his chief had decided that, but before he could complain, he was hung up.
The assistant shrugged and continued to hear the two males' conversation. "Sonic, please, let me help you." "No." "Why not?" The blue one hesitated then looked, "I can't tell you.." he whispered. The echidna seemed quite confused, so he decided to just listen to his companion. "If I tell you what happened, it's gonna cost someone's life." The red head intend to reply, but was blocked, "Telling you isn't going to help me at all. Many say it works," He looked at the window for a moment, "But that's nonsense. Especiallaly when you don't want to remember… Why should tell you?" Knuckles gave a serious look, "Because you have to. If you think you're going to help like this, you're not going to get anything unless you start talking." Sonic blinked twice, but didn't respond, his mind trailed off the distance.
-2 Months Ago (5:12 P.M.)-
Darkness in every room
No where for light, It is dead
Plenty of places to hide more than secrets

It was a warm atmosphere. Flicky could be heard from miles. The critters were playing with each other in different ways. Sonic smelled the fresh air he was used to. Just awakening from a nap on an oak tree, he slowly raised his cerulean eyelids to show a amazing 12karot emerald irises. His sharp-looking ears moved up. His first sight was the short cut lime green grass. He jumped off the tree and looked around. He was in the comfort of the shady tree, but rays of sunlight could still reach him through the voids of the leaves. Sonic began to stretch and wondered if everything was just a horrible nightmare. Then, he felt a presence behind him. He turned around and saw a young girl with a red dress, pink hair, and light green eyes, "A-Amy?" he felt himself rise hope in his soul as he asked that. 'Is it really her? She's not dead? Could it be?' almost a million questions reached him. The girl said nothing and stepped forward. Of course it was Amy. But when she came about 4 steps away from him, she stopped.
Sonic had the idea of hugging his friend and being so relived that it was all untrue. To pour his tears down her back. He actually wanted to hear her questions. But instead of her normal talk to inspire him, she frowned. "Run." she said. Sonic blinked in confusion, "Run?" She began warning, "GO! NOW!" Before he could ask more, her regular condition suddenly changed. Her eyes were removed as blood drained down her face. A part of her head was missing and bloody. She had cuts all over her arms and legs. There was a dagger stuck in her rib area. Her face was much darker (not too dark). But the worst detail, her neck looked very loose, as if it would snap. The blue hedgehog covered his eyes with his gloved hands and cried at the horror.
In reality, his body was shaking from both the cold and the horrible dream he was having. His arms were locked around his chest and his legs to his knees. Then, a soft touch woke up the teenager. Sonic opened his eyes and looked at whoever touched him. He came in contact, no with his offender, but… a kid? "Who are you?" The blue one asked. The kid looked as if it were a toddler stage, but a bit older. He then realized it was a male. He was covered in a lime green colored fur and blue clear eyes. He then spoke with a British accent, "I'm Scourge. You?" The teen got his upper half up and his other half having his knees up. "I'm Sonic. Nice to finally see a new face," he stopped, "But, why are you here?" The kid looked at Sonic, "I used to live here. Why? You seem scared?" The blue hedgehog looked around and looked at his hiding spot and he quickly dragged him inside and closed the door, "Listen Scourge, I'm scared because… there's a .." "A what?" "k-killer.. And he's been following….." Hesitation he did and moved on, "It's a long story."
The green hedgie looked down and back up, "Wanna play some marbles?" Sonic gulped, "uh.. sure. Just don't make too much noise." The began flicking small colored balls from ones the size of 2 peas to a quarter's width. They were flicking them like crazy at each other and pretty soon, both were giggling, but not remembering the danger close by. Sonic felt glad to be able to have fun with someone, and as soon as he was beginning to lose his guard, a marble rolled under the closet door.
"Wait here." he said with a wide smile and crawled over to get the small item. When he was ready to grab it, another hand had caught it. Sonic slowly looked up and saw Shadow. The black hedgehog looked at his crush. He was suddenly turned on by his unnoticeable sex appeal. "Hello Sonic." The blue one was entirely nervous and frightened as he gulped a lump of air. Shadow's eyes were filled with desired lust, but he knew he wasn't going to have it, or at least, not all of it just yet. He showed the startled teen his devious frown and later spoke, "What are you doing my fine darlin'?" he then licked his lips as if he were grieving for something, he still had his lust filled eyes and smirk though. Sonic almost choked, but he got the courage somehow to stand up and speak, "Lying around. The usual thing, that's all." "Hm…" Sonic hoped that Shadow would buy it.
He never did know because the next thing he knew, he was on the floor and the dark life form was on top of him and speaking and licking his right blue ear. The blue one could feel very uncomfortable right now because not only was Shadow on top of him, but he was literally in a 'sexual position.' (if you people know what I mean)To make matters worse, he was being massaged by his enemy's hands on the upper part of his legs. The feeling made our blue hero either want to moan or choke. Choke and break is what he intended to do.
Unfortunately, that didn't occur. The ebony hedgehog had other plans. He stopped his hands and moved them to his love's chest and began moving them up and down to his torso. 'What is he trying to do? Seduce me?' he thought. His mind kept telling him to move, kick, punch, anything to get him off, but he was numb at the moment. Scourge had been watching everything and it gave him plenty of disgust. The poor child's eyes had seen things that were not to be known. "Shadow. Stop it!" "Why? You know you want it." "FUCK NO! GET THE HELL OFF ME!" The blue hedgehog intended to get rid of the black pest by pushing him off, but it didn't work. He was then given kisses and licks all over his neck. The blue one shrieked in shock and disgust. "Get off!" he kept repeating, but the adult simply refused.
The lime green hedgehog was out of the closet. He had enough of seeing his friend being threatened. He grabbed a stray empty bottle of beer and slowly made his way close to Shadow. Meanwhile, the evil hedgehog took out his knife and put it near his love's face and began shushing him. "This blade, is going to pierce your skin and tear your flesh apart if you d-" CLANK! The little lime hedgehog broke the glass bottle on Shadow's head! But, he was not knocked out, so Scourge did the impossible of going on his black back and putting his arms around his neck to choke him. "WHAT THE FUCK?" The ebony one was entirely confused and got off Sonic, who made a run for it.
Then, he turned back and looked at his friend. Shadow tried to get the kid off of him. He pulled on his wrists and arms and then decided to take his knife out to cut him enough to get him off. Scourge fell to the hard wooden floor. He coughed a couple of times, but then felt a sharp pain on his neck when Shadow grabbed him, "Who the hell are you kid?" Then, out of nowhere, an old woman runs at the scene and sees Scourge, "MY GOODNESS! GET YOUR DIRTY PAWS OFF MY BOY!" Ebony looked at the cranky lady and looked at his knife, "You've seen too much woman, so.. DIE YOU FUCKEN BITCH!" he threw the sharp blade a the old woman as it struck her near the heart. She tipped over and fell down backwards to the ground. Emerald orbs looked at the red changing eyes of love to rage of no mercy. He went close to his attacker and went down on his knees, begging "SHADOW! I BEG YOU! DON'T KILL HIM!"
The ebony hedgehog looked at his victim. "The boy has seen too much…" he stopped and took out his pistol, pointing it at the young boy's head near him. Scourge began crawling his way towards Sonic. Shadow watched him, but did nothing. The boy looked back and the black hedgehog quickly finished his speech, "Leaving no witnesses behind!" a silver bullet went through Scourge's head in a swift moment. The boy fell to the ground like a doll falling from it's shelf. Blood slowly poured from his head as it later formed a puddle near his friend. Sonic cried, putting his hands over his face in a shock of a friend's death. Shadow came close to the dead body and kicked it aside. "I had to do this… to keep are secret alive." he said.
Blue eyelids suddenly opened, 'He did not just say that as an excuse?!' he thought and gave an angry stare. He then began growling at the self fish murderer. "ARGH!" he yelled before he leaped on Shadow and pounding him with death blows at his black enemy. The ultimate life pushed the teenager off and threw a hit of his own on Sonic's face. He was hurled enough to stop and his lip was bleeding.
-Reality-
The doors opened from the front doors of the building as Helen, Silver, and an investigator returned from the search. They entered the room of transparent walls. Sonic and Knuckles stood up. Then the blue hedgehog asked, "Did you identify the body?" he asked. "Pfft!" said the investigator and resumed, "Are you kidding me? There was no body." The hedgehog was in complete shock. He could not understand how it were to be, "What? That's impossible!" On the far end of the room was the white hedgehog… smirking.
